Made these for my wife :) She drew the board shape and asked me to make it look like a circuit board. Everything on there is actually functional because I couldn’t bring myself to put down random components.

What do you mean with „Everything on there is actually functional“?

    Ooh does it light up? What is that unpopulated spot for?

    There is an RGB led in the lower right, so yes if you program it to! I didn’t make provisions for battery power on this one though so it’s not meant to light up while worn. The unpopulated spot in the upper right is for the microcontroller. My wife preferred the look of the processor missing so I didn’t solder one down on hers.

    Does this allow you to control the microchips in everyone and raise an army?

    Not bad and can I try?

    How do you cleanly cut boards? I have some old RAM sticks that are pretty small by today's standards and I'd kinda like to make earrings with them one day

    This is just a guess, but maybe use a jigsaw to generalize a shape & rotary tool to fine tune it?
